12As of 2.4.7, rsync uses Eric Troan's popt option-parsing library. A
13cut-down copy of release 1.5 is included in the rsync distribution,
14and will be used it there is no popt library on your build host, or if
15the --with-included-popt option is passed to ./configure.

17If you configure using --enable-maintainer-mode, then rsync will try
18to pop up an xterm on DISPLAY=:0 if it crashes. You might find this
19useful, but it should be turned off for production builds.

22HP-UX NOTES
23-----------
24
25The HP-UX 10.10 "bundled" C compiler seems not to be able to cope with
26ANSI C. You may see this error message in config.log if ./configure
27fails:
28
29 (Bundled) cc: "configure", line 2162: error 1705: Function prototypes are an ANSI feature.
30
31Install gcc or HP's "ANSI/C Compiler".

35MAC OSX NOTES
36-------------
37
38Mac OS X (Darwin) seems to have an IPv6 stack, but it does not
39completely implement the "New Sockets" API.
40
41<http://www.ipv6.org/impl/mac.html> says that Apple do not support
42IPv6 yet. If your build fails, try again with --disable-ipv6.
